Happy International Women’s Day to all you women reading this post! This year let us: Celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievement of women. Yet let’s also be aware progress has slowed in many places across the world, so urgent action is needed to accelerate gender parity. Leaders across the world are pledging to take action as champions of gender parity. — Pledge for Parity To all the women out there: Happy International Women’s Day! This year’s theme is pledge for parity. I feel so fortunate that was born (Indonesia) and then grew up in countries (Indonesia and US)

Hey hey! Hope everybody is having a fantastic Sunday! It’s Mothering Sunday here in the UK and so if you’re from countries celebrating this today, HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY! Yesterday was a busy day for us. Emma had a competition, an early one too, where besides being scored on gymnastics, the kids can earn a special ribbon for their numbers. While a few kids do make their own numbers, many of them have help from the parents. Or a lot of help. In the past Emma’s participated in the creating of her number but this year, all Emma came up with

What a week! Busy and relaxing at the same time. The girls were out of school this last week. It’s half term and all of the English school children are out on school holiday. Usually we travel somewhere far for the whole week but this week, due to hubby’s work schedule, we went for a weekend getaway instead to London. We’ve been to London many times but never to stay the night. Also, as often as we’ve been up there, we’ve never strolled through Notting Hill. We’ve been close (Hyde Park) but not Notting Hill itself. On this occassion we

Hi again! I am still into blogging! I really am!! My motivation is up high and I’ve been working hard on a lot of things. Working so hard to the point of sleeping at 2am and waking up again at 8am (the later is mostly due to children, sans kids, I’d be waking up a bit later ;)). Anyhoot, I want to do more for this blog. Not so much sharing crafty goodness like I used to but more of sharing tutorials. Unlike last time, when I was actively digital scrapbooking and papercrafting, my tutorials will not just focus on

Renting an apartment or house can give you more space and bang for your buck than a hotel room when traveling with your family or a small group of people.

I am not going to go into the pros and cons of owning a timeshare, or whether you should get one or not. This can be a whole other long post. What I do what to share is this: It was fantastic to able to stay in one to two bedroom apartments with

Hi again! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend! We LOVE Meal Planning! For the third year our family or I am to be exact, is still going strong with the meal plan. Meal planning has not only saved us money but it has also helped us from wasting too much raw material. I have also quit our weekly veg delivery service. I tried really hard to work my recipes around the box content (that I’ve customised) but it was still limiting and I ended up giving away or throwing a bit of the content away. Right now we’re

Hello

Hi! My name is Savitri and I want to welcome you to my little corner of the World Wide Web where I share a bit of my daily life of being a mom, wife, traveler, educator, photographer, and foodie.

This blog used to be a place where I share my passion for papercrafting but that is now in the past. While I do still enjoy crafting, I have now gravitated towards fabric and felt, I tend to spend most of my free time exploring with the family, cooking and dog walking.
